WELCOME!!! I'm going to say that motor won't last to long with a turbo. So I say the first thing you should do is buy a 6.0L.
2006 extended cab, 6.0 swap, full bolt ons SOLD
2011 ECSB, 6.2, 6 spd, 3.73, 5" lift, 33" nitto, limo tint, debadged, volant CAI, muffler delete, black bear tune 14.0 @ 98 on the 33'sSOLD
2007 TBSS AWD, cam, stall, built trans, N2OSOLD
2006 RCSB cammed LQ9, full exhaust, 3200 stall, 2-4 drop
49 Ford F1
355 chevy / turbo 350 / 12 bolt posi / camaro subframed
Welcome
I would begin by either rebuilding buying yourself a new motor. Wouldn't exactly recommend turboing a 309K mile motor![]()

Welcome.
Welcome. Im glad you finally spoke up! With 300k on the ticker it may be time to get a motor like was said. A lq4 can be picked up for a decent price if you search around and they love boost. Be a good starting point. Aside from having bigger cubes once you get a few things done to it it will be much better then where you are before you get a turbo put on.
